The peaceful Europe

By Lucas Turks

Real cost of the defense in Europe

I have thought well about giving a glance to what it happens in Europe. I have
made some searches that have allowed me realizing interesting graphic representations
of the expenses for the defense of the European nations. The data are based on
the last available censuses or on the official communications of the respective
governments and for the greatest part they arrive until 1997-98, therefore they
can be said adjourned. I won't spend other words about this. I leave you free
to analyze and get your conclusions. You could have some surprises. (look at Greece
and Portugal above all)
